jan "Konoro" o, toki!

In Toki Pona you don't use capital letter except for names. At the begging of a sentence you have to use small letters also.

The adjective(s) come after the noun:
sign language = toki luka

After "sina mute" you need a "li".

"kepeken" means "to use, with, using".
We shall use YOU?

For a question you need "seme", "ala" or "anu".

Please see http://rowa.giso.de/languages/toki-pona ... essons.php

Maybe you mean:

mi wile pali e toki luka. sina mute li wile ala wile pali e ni kin?

But there are some sign languages:

Really? I always thought that you put the adjective in front of the noun/verb it is describing; like when showing possession (you possess the qualities of this). I'll make sure to correct this mistake in the future.

I capitalized those words because it is a name for a sign language.

And by sign language I mean a system of hand gestures used to communicate toki pona to a deaf person, not a hieroglyphic alphabet.

I suppose the NA character of tp is not later than the second lesson (even the name sorta gives it away).
Is that really the *name* of a sign language, or merely a description. If it is a name, then the comment about order doesn't apply either-- there; it applies several other places ('sina mute', e.g.), though.
